Jim McGeahy <br />Jim Bailey <br /> <br />TOTAL CONTRACT AMOUNT <br />$3,000,000 <br /> <br />CLIENT CONTACT <br />Michael Forgy <br />Regional Exercise Manager <br />810 Seventh Street, NW <br />Washington, DC 20531 <br />(202) 514-1546 <br />srnithg(O)oi D. usdoi.gov <br /> <br />CONTRACT STARTIEND <br />FY 2003 <br /> <br />time lines for implementation. <br /> <br />As part of the Department of Justice's IDO)I anti-terrorism <br />preparedness initiative in 2002. the Office for Domestic Preparedness <br />lOOP) designated URS' EG&G Division to assist in developing <br />homeland security exercise and evaluation programs in thirteen <br />western states and three u.s. possessions in the Pacific. This contract <br />recently transitioned to the DHS, and its purpose is to help states and <br />local jurisdictions build or enhance their capacity to design, develop, <br />conduct. and evaluate WMD exercises. <br /> <br />Under this contract, (funded at $3,000.000 for FY03) ODP requested <br />URS' support for the planning. implementation, and facilitation of <br />fifteen Exercise Plan Workshops for the Western Region of the United <br />States to support the Fiscal Year 2003 State Homeland Security Grant <br />Program ISHSGP). We also supported the development of the <br />corresponding Three.Year Exercise Plans. The purpose of the <br />workshops was to assist the states in developing a state and local <br />exercise program that enhances the level of preparedness. These <br />meetings, conducted in partnership with ODP, brought together a <br />group of high level officials, representing multiple disciplines from the <br />state, regional and local levels to: 1) establish expectations for exercise <br />activities; 21 discuss implementation of the Homeland Security Exercise <br />and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) doctrine; 31 estlblish priorities for <br />exercises; and, 4) define how corrective actions flowing from exercises <br />will be addressed and tracked. Using the input from the meeting. we <br />developed draft Three-Year Exercise Plans. which included an exercise <br />program description for the state, goals and objectives, and a plan with <br /> <br />Comprehensive draft Three-Year Exercise Plans were developed In fifteen working days after each Exercise Plan <br />Workshop. <br /> <br />CLIENT SATISFACTION <br /> <br />ODP has selected the Colorado Three-Year Exercise Plan prepared by URS' EG&G Division as the plan that <br />best meets their vision, format and content required for such plans. This plan will serve as the template for all <br />future plans developed for all 58 federal jurisdictions (States, the District of Columbia, and Territories). <br /> <br />Note: Sample work products for San Diego Multi-Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan, the LAX Master Plan <br />and the San Diego Urban Area Security Initiative have been included with this submittal on CD because of <br />lheir length. For the latter, this project and the results are confidential, so we have provided summary <br />information available wilhin the constraints of our agreement. <br /> <br />URS <br /> <br /> <br />32 <br />
